3 People Dead After a Shooting at the Columbia Mall

Three people are dead in a shooting at the Columbia Mall in Howard County, Maryland. The suspected shooter is amongst the deceased. Police say the mall is currently secure, but they're not letting anyone in or out until further notice. My heart breaks for the families of the dead.

Man, it feels like there's a story like this every day — and in places where you'd least expect it. The mall is where you shop sales and eat giant pretzels, not where you possibly lose your life. Awful.
